End of Life Care!

From childhood to young age, from young age to mid age, from mid age to old age all the time we care about our life. But have we ever thought of what about after when we become too old and even we can not move from our own, can't eat from our own, can not speak much then who will be caring us and how?

And even if in that situation we leave your body, what will be the next and which form of body you will get, are you sure to get human form of body?

This is why you should be very careful from our childhood to maintain your consciousness to remember Krishna as Lord Krishna says in Bhagwad Gita 8.5

अन्तकाले च मामेव स्मरन्मुक्त्वा कलेवरम् |

य: प्रयाति स मद्भावं याति नास्त्यत्र संशय: || 8.5|| 

And whoever, at the end of his life, quits his body remembering Me alone at once attains My nature. Of this there is no doubt.

But it is not so easy to remember Krishna at the time of death, when we are not aware of how much pain we are going to suffer, and in what condition we will be, in what mood people will come to us?

For that Srila Prabhupada used to encourage people to chant holy names of Lord and meditate on His forms, Pastimes etc. so at last we can keep Krishna in our mind while leaving the body.

Our beloved H.H.Giriraj Mahraj great disciple of Srila Prabhupada came to the idea of Bhaktivedanta Hospice situated in Vrindavan where people can go and depart peaceful from there in mode of Krishna Consciousness.

His ultimate goal is to people can maintain their consciousness while leaving their body, and make sure they go home go back to Godhead.

Finally our life is preparation and death is our final examination.



Hare Krishna!

Nectar in the beginning but Poison in end

He was young and belonging from rich family, he entered into the compartment and seated next to me.  Long and stylist hair, branded watch on wrist, iPhone in hand but he was loosing his control. Started abusing someone on phone and shouting out very louder, people was looking at him.  He was fully drunken and started vomiting, people thrown out him out of train and he slayed down at platform. Story is not over yet, I was thinking is this our modern education we are providing to our children and in the name of facilities we are giving them huge money, branded gadgets, but being an guarding do we ever try to esquire what they do and, which type of association they keep?  Once these things comes in their hands they start thinking, no one is greater than me and due to false ego they disrespect elder people.  But one thing they forget, disrespecting elder people only harmful to them because elderly people only teach them morality and good lesson. And being an elder person...

Laxmana - The Hidden Hero of Ramayana

In our previous post we have already mentioned Ramayna is not an ordinary story but a complete learning lesson from each & every characters.

Laxmana teaches us how to maintain character, competency, selfless service, and equal in both the situation either you are praised or you are abused. If you have fixed your aim, then there is no question of disturbance what people say to you. But when we get into the deep of Ramayana and see the value of Laxmana, We see he was the hero after Lord Rama in the whole story. Laxmana represents  who carry out Laxmi with him and serve Lord Rama by his good will. Laxmana always eager to serve Lord Rama, when Lord Rama was about to go for exile for fourteen years Laxmana immediately stood up & ready to go along with Lord Rama although he was not asked to go to exile.
